they are going to forget about all of the dumb stuff mitt romney said. tavis: unless he keeps saying dumb stuff. >> i think this could get close, and here is the point that you and i agree on. the worst thing the president can do is undercut his credibility by not looking like a man of the people, which he truly is compared to romney. it makes the other 99% think they are not part of the process, so all of the people were excited about a bomb in 2008, it is depressing. "do i bother? it is not about me anymore." it is a terrible thing to do, but it is also important to win the election do not touch this money. tavis: i have got two months. the whole nation is watching wisconsin. tell me what is going to happen with the scott walker situation and about labornion across the country. you tell me. >> we are going to finish the job. governor walker was sworn in and without notification, he attacked the people. we are the first to have collective bargaining for public employees. we have hundreds of thousands of people protesting at the state capital, but they d
